The map
Lakhdaria lies in Bouira Province in northern Algeria, on the Isser River where it cuts through the hills on the western side of Kabylie. In colonial times the town was known as Palestro, and the narrow Gorges de Palestro nearby remain its best-known landscape feature.
Because the valley is tight, the main routes all follow the same line. The river, the railway and the East-West Highway run close together through the gorges, and the town spreads along the valley floor and up onto the slopes around it, giving the map a strong, directional shape.
A Lakhdaria map poster brings out this relationship between terrain and town. It suits people from Bouira Province, travellers who have passed through the gorges on the way between Algiers and the east, and anyone who appreciates places shaped by mountains.
The river passes through a narrow gorge near the town, and on the map the route pinches tightly between steep ground before opening out again.
Road, rail and river run in parallel through the valley, a set of closely bundled lines that give the map a clear sense of movement.
Beyond the valley floor, streets climb onto the surrounding slopes, bending with the terrain rather than following a regular grid.
